In what must amount to the strangest promotional ad for Karen and Richard Carpenter, this one for their 1971 concert at the G. Rollie White Coliseum on the Texas A&M campus has to easily beat out any competition. Is it hand drawn or silk screened? Hard to say.
One thing is certain, the Carpenters were hot on the charts! At the time of this concert, their song Superstar became their 5th Gold single in a row behind Rainy Days and Mondays and For All We Know. The upcoming Hurting Each Other would go to Number One on the Billboard charts and become their 6th to go Gold.
Just imagine paying only $8 to see a best selling musical act of their caliber! That is a weird thought!
